Which do you prefer for girls’ choices? Middle name will be Jean.

Eliza is harsh!

I love Eliza especially and think both lovely names

Junebughustle · 29/06/2022 22:00

I love Eliza!

Surprisedat42 · 29/06/2022 22:02

Eliza would have Elizabeth as her full name.

Eliza. Dd has many, many Charlottes in her year at school. 7 if you dont count the Lottie.

Both are gorgeous. I honestly think you could pick either at random and have a beautiful name there. I would probably say Elizabeth Jean/Eliza Jean just because I know a few little Charlottes at nurseries I’ve worked in but I only know one Elizabeth (called Ellie). So I would choose Eliza because I think you’re less likely to bump into other little Elizas. But Charlotte is lovely too.

Kanaloa · 29/06/2022 22:08

I also think Jean is a cute middle name too by the way!

Surprisedat42 · 29/06/2022 22:11

Thank you. Jean is for a lovely relative who will be thrilled by the news of the baby - so we would like to include that.

We have a Charlotte.

Eliza

Eliza is much nicer than Charlotte. I prefer just Eliza though not Elizabeth. Jean is lovely for middle name.

Eliza

Eliza - love it!

Sierra1961 · 29/06/2022 22:51

I prefer Eliza personally. Has more character, and Charlotte is lovely but much more common

Eliza is harsh!

I'd say the opposite. I think Eliza is very gentle sounding and Charlotte is very harsh.

In answer to your question Op "Eliza"

KirstenBlest · 30/06/2022 08:45

Charlotte. I also think Eliza sounds harsh.
Jean is lovely

Luxa · 30/06/2022 10:08

Eliza, although Liza would be more refreshing.

emmathedilemma · 30/06/2022 12:22

Eliza is a different sound to Elizabeth though? I'd go with just Eliza.

RuthW · 30/06/2022 12:33

Eliza by a mile

DontLikeCoffee · 30/06/2022 12:36

I like Eliza. I know so many Charlottes it’s ridiculous!

Underhisi · 30/06/2022 15:39

If she is going to be known as Eliza I would call her that rather than Elizabeth. Most people will assume Eliza is her full name.

Theoldwoman · 30/06/2022 15:41

Charlotte by a country mile, but Eliza Jean sounds better.

Ouchmytoe100 · 30/06/2022 16:10

Love Eliza. Charlotte a bit dull.

Xanadu58 · 30/06/2022 16:24

Eliza. We've got one in our family, I think it's beautiful.
